Its best-known one is letting calcium and alkalinity stay supersaturated without losing balance. Low magnesium may leave you unable to maintain proper calcium levels, and it may also lead to a pH that is too low. The recommended magnesium level in reef aquaria is 1180-1460 mg\/l (ppm).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTest your water first to check current parameters before adding any magnesium solution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDissolve 10 g of Aquaforest Magnesium Dry in 1000 ml of RODI water to make the solution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet the dose from your water test results and your corals' daily consumption.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf you are adding a calcium solution, add it slowly to a high-flow area of the tank to help reduce precipitation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTo maintain ionic balance, KH Buffer and Reef Mineral Salt should also be applied.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMagnesium and Calcium, or Reef Mineral Salt, can be combined into one solution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDosage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolution strength: 10 g dissolved in 1000 ml RODI water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100 ml of magnesium solution in 100 l of water raises the magnesium level by 1,2 mg\/l (ppm).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not raise magnesium by more than 50 ppm per day.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlways base the actual dose on your test results and your corals' daily consumption.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSPS corals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLPS corals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft corals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAquaforest Magnesium Dry can be mixed with Calcium Dry to create one solution that maintains proper calcium and magnesium levels with a single dosing pump.

Test your water before dosing so you know where you are starting from.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much will the solution raise my magnesium level?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n100 ml of the solution in 100 l of water raises magnesium by 1,2 mg\/l (ppm). Do not raise it by more than 50 ppm in a day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I dose it together with Calcium Dry?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. Magnesium Dry can be mixed with Calcium Dry into one solution, so a single dosing pump can maintain both calcium and magnesium. Magnesium and Calcium, or Reef Mineral Salt, can be combined into one solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat can happen if my magnesium is too low?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLow magnesium may make it hard to maintain proper calcium levels and may result in a pH that is too low.
